So nice, too!

I stumbled upon the salon while looking for a vendor of Schwarzkopf products. I had just moved to Boston, and was already addicted to their full line of shampoo and conditioners. I also needed a haircut, and I knew that Schwarzkopf was really picky about the salons where they distribute products--finding Salon 23 West was like hitting to birds with one stone.

Unfortunately, I have not yet made it in for the trim, but I wanted to report that they were so nice in connecting me with my much-loved shampoo. I was really pleasantly surprised--while I love being pampered, it usually comes at the expense of feeling a bit overwhelmed. Here, things were different-- everyone I spoke with was kind, funny, and helpful.

• Pros: Staff is really sweet, great products

Great cut!

I stopped by Salon 23 to get a quick haircut the other day and couldn't have been happier. I stopped in and they were able to take me right away. It's a very sharp looking salon but it's also pretty cool to sit above the main street while getting your hair cut and watch over. Harley did my cut and was a real cool guy who kept it simple and did exactly what I asked.

Very exctited to have found my new spot!

• Pros: Everything you're looking for

Beautiful, Clean Salon with Professional and Qualified Staff!

I have seen Rita now twice at this salon. She is a master stylist and it shows. The first time she helped fix my awful haircut (that I received on Newbury St.). The second time was just recently and she cut and colored my hair. The color was just what I wanted! And for my cut she kept it simple as I asked. Unlike other hairdressers she listened to me, made suggestions, but in the end did what I wanted and not what she wanted. The salon itself is newly renovated and gorgeous. It's bright spacious and always very clean. The receptionists and other staff members were very friendly as well. I would highly recommend this salon! Plus its right in downtown Wellesley, so you can eat and shop when your done!

• Pros: Friendly, clean, and proffesional
